Summer Share #5 July 5th

We had the BEST week here in the gardens….the heat was rough but we have turned into complete harvest masters…..all day! It’s amazing the bounty coming out of the fields every day. We are blown away and keeping up.

Cucumbers were a shock! And tons of the beauties were on the vines. I thought they was a week out yet and now we start harvesting daily.

1st cucumbers out of this row. You can’t see my face but I am saying to Scott “I can’t believe this!” Almost disbelief.

The broccoli is great! And almost 200 pounds of it! Phew.

Broccoli!

The long bean row went into production with over 50 pounds on our 1st harvest. Of course on a blazing hot day we crawled our way down the rows. Thankfully Scott’s oldest daughter came to help.

Zucchini are cut every morning and cut small and the last of the peas were harvested. As time allows Scott is removing the trellis and we will convert this area over to Fall crops. Hopefully next week.

It seems to be a bit of a scurry but we are happy and pleased with the quality and volume of produce coming from the garden.
